Loves Refrain

The tree bears our names

Deep are the initials carved

A heart and arrow

Forever it will remain

So long after loves refrain...

I had to laugh at my self for I thought oh 3 bears and then I read it again and got the message. A little slow on the uptake this morning Shar ha ha. Yes, those will remain for the lifetime of the tree and what a memory it will leave. love phyl

One of the better tanka poems I have seen since I first entered this site a little over two months ago.
